For the first page, it is a discussion post

I want you to answer the question entirely in your words. Don't use an article. Don't copy and paste or borrow phrases. Your words and quotations from work.


Adichie explains, “The problem with gender is that it prescribes how we should be rather than recognizing who we are” (34). How does she back that up? Is gender restrictive? How so? In what ways?



For the second page, it is a one-page response 


Option 1: Adichie identifies several issues and inequalities women of the 21st-century experience. How and in what ways do we see these ideas play out in our society? You can connect Adichie’s ideas to personal experience and/or current events, but make sure to also include specific references to Adichie's work.
